"Stand down men, they're servants of the Empire now."
The smugness is radiating through the Mage's masked face, even as his brow reads neutral regardless."Thank you Commander for your understanding. I wanted to inform you as well, your assistance has granted me greater prestige with my superiors, and as such, you will share in my rewards. They may well be interested in inviting you to meet them one day, but in the mean time, my Sentinels are yours to command, lest I need them. Do try not to break them."
>Gained Sentinel Bodyguard
Beyond that ,you begin calling people through comm codes given by prior vendors, and soon enough you're put in contact with a man who calls himself "The local Dealer", who begins answering your questions about their service.
>Call up whatever Consortium contacts we can get on world and have them provide us safe jump co-ordinates in system.
"Listen man, your ships we can get jump coords for, but they are dangerous for small ships. Your larger Star Destroyers could do it, but theres a small chance, I'm talking miniscule, that you come out into the planet and shatter the world like you wanted to reenact Pammant. Not a guarantee, its a 1 in a million chance, not for unlucky men though. I'll give you the coords but at a cost."
>Buy Safe Jump Coordinates(2 Influence, Jump outside of enemy Ambush area.)
>See if the locals can connect us with new ships or suitable crew or help us hire some privateers
"Ships? I got plenty of. Warships? Barking up the wrong tree. I've got some old used Z-95s and cloakshapes, but nothing expensive or of much note. I can call up some friends and buddies who are mercs, some even have a corvette or 2, but they'll take some days to be here. The ships in orbit are all cartel ships, their "Proud little navy".
>Hire Mercenary groups to join you for the push to Zerm(6 Influence, receive 5 Corvettes and 3 fighter squadrons to join you along the warpath, will take 2 Days to arrive.)
>Intel on the enemy forces.
"As blind as some of our guys may look, they can read a mean sensor. We can have some of our guys check em out and bring back the intel, but I'll need an insurance fee on the ships that go on the job for ya."
>Hire Consortium scouts to give intel on the fleet(2 Influence, half a day, receive enemy fleet details on capital ships, and part of their compliment of fighters.)
